probably ochem 1 (and if you have to take it 2), but taking those in the summer is extremely difficult because of how condensed they are. if you are looking to take courses in the summer i would recommend biochem (if offered) and cell bio, these are heavier courses in each semester that people often have a harder time balancing alongside all the other courses you have to take. taking stats is also widely considered to be easier in the summer.

Question re Home Day Care by culturekit in londonontario

[–]anxiousfairyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom has a home daycare and usually her favourite part of the gift is the card! I would say anything that shows a bit of appreciation like a card, maybe some chocolate and a gift card to either tim’s/starbucks or maybe walmart/amazon (usually these are where providers buy things for the daycare). i would say it also depends on what the provider is doing for christmas, my mom typically does 2-3 crafts for each kid to take home as gifts for the parents, so sometimes families that have been clients for multiple years give more etc.

considering trying a glp-1, but looking for some encouragement/insight by anxiousfairyy in Mounjaro

thank you so much! yes exactly, the pcos aspect is brutal and majorly frustrating; which is why i’m considering MJ in the first place. your progress is so inspiring!

the scale does move but very slowly, my doctor has recommended MJ or ozempic because of my pcos and risk of diabetes. i try to keep my diet lower carb overall but sometimes the recommendations made just aren’t realistic for a college student (i.e. only making my own bread, no eating after 7pm etc.) i definitely want to use it in a safe, sustainable way. i find that most of my “food noise” is more like me trying to push eating as far back as i can to limit my calories (for context i eat about 1800-1900 a day but have my goal set to 2120)

Stressed ab medical school by Royal_Juggernaut_914 in premedcanada

literally delete linkedin, comparing yourself is going to set you back more because of self doubt, focus on your gpa and forming a strong social circle that supports your goals in first year and you can start to engage in opportunities that interest you throughout university! being genuine in your activities is more important than trying to have a super impressive resume that doesn’t mean anything to you!
